HPT thoughts on how early to take?

Question

Hey ladies! I've been kinda MIA lately. Been so busy! We moved into our house last weekend so things have been crazy. What's everyone thoughts on how early to take a hpt? AF is due Sunday but glow is telling me today I can take one. I've read a lot that they're not that accurate until you've missed AF. I'm debating maybe taking one tomorrow AM but I have a huge meeting all day that I know I won't be able to concentrate at if i take one tomorrow regardless of the outcome and especially if it's a BFP haha. So I think I may wait until Saturday. Hope everyone is well!

Answer

Here are some house pictures finally!! Ignore the messes and lack of curtains in some rooms haha. Also took a picture of the snow. We're currently getting hammered and it's still going! I'm supposed to walk/run a 5k tomorrow, but I've been too busy to train for it so I think I may use the snow as an excuse to bail on it. Haha ? I also put a picture of the wine shopping spree I went on at Trader Joe's to make something of my BFN since I have a couple parties coming up!  I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! I'm thankful to have you ladies to go through this journey with! ?

Answer

I feel like AF is on the way, so I just did cheapies this morning. (I'd like to know before AF shows up & I can't test with DH the next 2 days). No surprise, BFN. Oh well. Grateful to have such a supportive hubby. If we don't get a BFP next cycle, I'll be going to see my doctors... The clock is ticking before I have to have a recheck for cervical cancer. :-/

Answer

I love your color schemes!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Answer

Thanks everyone! So I didn't have internet until yesterday late afternoon haha. DH and I were both over 75% on our phone data plans too. It was getting hairy, but now we're good!! I'll definitely post some pictures! Maybe this weekend. I haven't taken a HPT yet, but thanks for all the advice! Decided to wait until Sunday. Plus my brother and sister slept over last night cause yesteday was DH's birthday so we had a small party. As far as symptoms my breasts are noticeably tender. Not painful, but I've noticed it even when I wasn't looking for it. I was talking last night and bumped my right side wih my arm and i definitely felt it. That's also though kinda what's happened with the nausea last month though so I'm trying to not read too much into it. Like I've said before I'm able to will symptoms onto myself haha. No AF signs though. I thought I did get a random cramp yesterday, but it may have just been my stomach  we'll see what tomorrow morning brings!

Answer

Congrats on the move! I got faint lines starting 5 days before AF due and got stronger as AF came closer.

Answer

Did you take one today, Meghan... Or are you waiting until tomorrow. After missed AF is the most accurate, but if you have a FRER, you could test tomorrow. FX for you!! How are you feeling?

Answer

Oh and congrats on the house hope all is going smooth I can't wait to see some pictures :) woohoo! and baby dust sent your way ?✨✨?

Answer

As early as 14 DPO but I would try to wait until AF is due at least

Answer

First, congrats on the move! Hope you are settling in well. I think if you have no AF signs, taking a test on Sunday would be pretty accurate. I got a positive at what I thought was 13 DPO (but it may have been 14 or 15 DPO based on what the dr is estimating as the due date). Good luck!

Answer

Welcome back! I've been wondering how the house is coming along. Be sure to send pics. I think for accuracy it's best to wait as long as possible, even a couple days after AF is due. Best of luck!
